[FROM THE CARLISLE JOURNAL OF SATURDAY. We have this 'week to record one of the most de strucit ive inundatirins which ever occurred in this part of the country. Owing to the severe and incessant rain on Monday, the rivers which enviran Carlisle, the Eden, the . Caldew, and Peterill, on TUesday morning, overflowed their bank;, and presented a vast and magnificent sheet of water, beautifully sp,,tted with little islands and clumps of trees: Happy would we be - were the grandeur, of 'the scene the only circumstance worthy of remark i un fortunately, the painful dtiv remains of noticing the destruction and catastrophes occasioned by the sud drn swell. Though the Eden and Peterill were not deficient in mischief, by far the largest proportion of damage waaetfetted by the Caldew ; whose mountain tor rent, hurrying along a continued declivity, scarcely gave warning of its approach. By'those persons-in and near Caldewgate, who saw the flood descend ing in its fUry, (which was between the hours of five and six in The morning), it is described as re sembling some mighty tide, rolling forward with amazing rapidity. In Shaddongate, Caldewgate, and by the Damside, the houses were inundated. to the depth of three, four, and even six feet. Furniture of every description was carried away ; arid a house on the margin of the, river,-inhabited by two fami lies, was washed down—scarcely a minute after they had Made ,a precipitate retreat. Part of their pro perty was afterwardq recovered, it having been cast upon the shore about three miles below. An in dustrious woman, who keeps a grocer's shop, is said to have lost goods to the value, of tool. ; the , loss of other individuals has been alsogreat. - It was lamentable to view the immense qnanti -ties of grain which were driven -down by the cur rent ; at• one time the river presented the singular appearance of an immense moving field of corn. A small part was recovered by means of drags, but-it is supposed that .some hundred Thousands of sheaves hate been entirely lost. . Tiinber, trees, hedges, gates, &c. were all. carried away in one promiscuous ruin stone walls were levelled, and the ground stripped of its soil. A remarkable instance of the lateer occurrkl at Sebergham : in a field of potatoes, I:ontaining about ()fie acre, not only the roots, but every, particle of soil, was swept , away ; so that what was fora ierly. fertile laod, is now a barren bed of :gravel. .At the same place, the woollen manufac tory of Mr. Saulovith the machinery, Bte. - 'was en tirety swept away ; 'Sebergharn bridge shared the same fate. The bridges 'at Hawkesdale, Hesket 4 Whelpa, and. over the river Ellen, near Matyport, have been likewise destroyed. The following accidents, we are sorry to state,' have come to our knowledge the time the arches of the last-mentioned bridge gave way, a boy was passing on horseback ; he unfortunately perish ed, but the horse escaped unhurt. The river Waver being greAy swollen; the house of an old woman, of the name of Mary Calvert, at Field-end, near Woodrow, was surrounded by the water; the help less situation of the poor creature exciting the fears of the neighbours, as soon as it was practicable, her condition was attended to, _when she was discover ed-in her bed, a iiteless corpse. And on Monday night, near the same place, the driver df a post chaise, belonging to an innkeeper in Wigton,. tuis sing.bis road, from the darkness 6f the night and the severity of the weather, the horses plunged into the foaming deep, where they were drowned, and the chaise dashed to pieces, which fortunately con tained no passengers. Miraculously, though with exceeding great difficulty, the driver regained -the shore. To particularize all the diSistrous effelita of the watery element would be an endless task: Among the principal sufferers in this neighbourhood is. Mr. Sinton, of Dalston-hall, who had wheat washed away to the amount, we understand, of 3001. Con siderable injury has been done at the print-works of Curnmersdale, and in several dying premises on the banks of the Caldew, by the water overwhelming the boilers, and destroying the colours, Scco In fad, never was the Caldew remembered to have risen to so great a height, or to have occasioned such extensive devastation. We• are happy, how ever, to learn,, that a subscription has been entered into, lo relieve those poor persons in Caldewgate, who have suffered on the occasion. • The rivers Line and Esk were also much swollen, and immense quantities of corn were carried off from the low grounds. The floods have also been destruaive in otherplaces, as will be seen by the following extraas of letters. We• had beard that Hexham Bridge had been washed away, but our Newcastle correspondent is silent on the subject. BRAMPTON, SEPT. 1 9.----On Monday morning commenced a very heavy rain, which continued, without intermission, until this day. In conse quence, the rivers King and.lrthing were consider ably swollen, and, overflowing their banks, delug ed the low grounds, and formed the largest and most magnificent expanse of water ever, remembered by the oldest resident. A great quantity of corn and sheep have been carried away ;- some thousands of sheaves being seen floating down the river, which will be very. severely felt by the neighbouring farmers. On Tuesday morning, early, the most tempes tuous weather, his believed, that ever was known in the latitude of, the British Islands. was experi enced at Gainsborough and in the neighbourhood. hurricane, accompanied with,hail and rain, pre vailed for several hours, tearing up trees and break ing, off branches, so as really to ohs-qua people in their way to ,Gainsborough Market, and frighten them back to their homes. Corn and hay stacks, and chimnies innumerable, were thrown down, and a great deal of damage was done. On Tuesday the 12th inst. a skiff belonging to ULYSSES HUGHES, Esq. a Lieutenant in the Royal Navy, of Grovesend, near Swansea, in which he had proceeded to Bristol, and was on his return with a quantity of household furniture, was picked up by the Perseverance, of Newport, near the mouth of Bridgewater river, and towed into Burn ham shore. Her side was beaten out, and Mr. HUGHES, with two men he had engaged for the trip, prished. A boy who was also on board, saved his life by swiMming to the shore. IRE LAN DUBLIN QUARTER SESSIONS. JEWISH OATHS. StPT. 20.—A trial of some curiosity, from its no velty in this country, took place on Tuesday last, at an adjournment of the Quarter Sessions, 'held be fore the RECORDER of the city of D6blin, and two of the Aldermen, CA•RLETON and.ALICH Su. • 'Abraham Lewis, a Getman Jew, was the Prose cutor, and Solomon Davis, another German Jew, "was the Prisoner on trial. The indietment charged the Defendant, that he, at the city of . Dublin, did feloniously take, steal, and carry away several arti tidies therein enumerated, among which were gold watches, diamond rings, and other valuable orna ments . and trinkets, to a very great amount. The Prisoner tendered an affidavit, to postpone his trial, -stating, that he resided in Bedfordshire, in England, could not have the benefit of his witnesses there, who were of his own religion, as the White Feasts were now.going on, during which time the Jews ne ver attended as witnesses; nor would they travel be fore the fourth of 06tober, and prayed that his trial might stand over until the sixth of that month. His Counsel, Mr. M`NALLv, urged, that though this affidavit would be insufficient in a common case, yet he ho l ied the Court would allow the player of it in the present case, upon principles of justice; he would not now argue 01)011 the common law privi lege that- every now had, of being tried in the vici nage, by -a jury of his neighbours, as a recent statute had enacted, that when stolen goods were exported from England to Ireland, or I roil) Ireland to England; the . party charged with the felony COtild be tried in .either country. Brat as the. Prisoner had so far to send for his witnesses, full time ought to.be granted to him, or he would be tried upon_ ex par !e . evidence,, that is, merely on the evidence of the wi nesses who instituted the charge, and appeared before thvt grand Jury ;—rind here he . mentioned the case of the Hearts of Steel, tried before- Judge RobinstiO, at commission, by virtue of an Ad of Parliament, now repealed; they, were tried in Dublin, by a Dublin_ Jury, for a murder in the North of Ireland, but acquitted on this principle, as expressed. by Alder- Man -How, the foreman of the Petty Jury, that the statute was against- the principles of the Constitution, in auiheirising a trial out of the vicinage, by a Jury not of toe vicinage ; which principle the Jury adopt ed, from an argument of the learned, the great, and virtuous Hussey Burgh, the Prisoner's Counsel, and afterwards Chief Baron. Mr. GREEN, Counsel' for the prosecution, was proceeding to answer this argument, .but was stop ped by the Recorder, who said the affidavit was de ficient in several parts, and the trial must go on. The Prosecutor, Abraham Lewis,was then called, and appeared with his hair in curious artificial ring.; lets, and a peaked beard. The 04TestaMent in English was handed to him to be "s‘vorti.— \ Mr. M'tslat,LY objected.—The rule- he said w/-:,s esta blished, every man must be sworn according to the. rules of his religion—thelTork on . the . Alcoran . the Persian on the Sun—the Presbyterian by holding up his hand, as in the case where Lord Cs;drge - Gordon was a witness, before he was a Jew—the-Jew must be iworn mit only on the Pentateuch, but the book must be in Hebrew 'and even that is not the sym b(.l of an Israelite's belief in. God, unless'the language runs on uninterrupted by mark or pun6tuation. In support of this position, he quoted the case ot Onti, chund and Baker, from the report of Atkins, and ut " the rules of evidence on pleas of the Crown," .and observed, a translated bible was not a sacred book with the, Jews, for they denied the purity of the translation. The Court allowed the objeEtiOn, and gave direclions that a Hebrew Bible should be sought for. Mr. GHEEtiI then called and exa mined Major Sirr, Divisional .Magistrate, who gave his evidence from written notes in , his own h:and writing,which stated that the two Jews came. before him, and he examined the Prisoner in the pre 7 sence of the' Prosecutor. Tie Prisoner admitted that part of the 'goods produced, and which Were found in his lodgings, were the property of the . Pro secutor, and-be selected such articles as he claimed to be his own, .and separated their from those Ale ad mitted to belong to the Prosecutor. -The Prisoner also said that he and the Prosecutor were partners. On the last point Mr. M;NALLY rested his cross-ex amination, observing, that i 1 they were partners there could be 'no felony, as the possession of one was the possession of the other, each had dominion over and property in the goods, and of course a civil aaion only could decide upon the right of ownership. A Hebrew Bible was . now produced, and Abra ham Lewis declaring that he believed in the Old Testament, and that the book he held was in Hebre - k and such as the Jews used in their Synagogues, the Court, ordered him to be sworn. . _ Mr. GREEN examined him, and in a simple, clear, and pathetic voice and it•auuer he deposed, t hat be met the Prisoner in Stoney Stratford, Bedfordshire, and only knew him for eight days previous to the robbery—that on returning home to his lodgings, he found his boxes broken open, and that he had been robbed of all his property. Suspecting the Prisoner; who had • disappeared, he immediately pursued him, and heard of him from stage to stage, till he arrived at Holyhead, from whence he sailed after him to Dub-. lin, and, by the 'assistance of Major Sirr i had hiu►'ar rested, and recovered his diamonds and other valuable articids. He positively denied on his cross examina tion, that any partnership or tradingconnectiou sub sisted between hint and the Prisoner, or that the Pri soner had any legal claim whatever on the goods. 'The Prisoner of course had no witnesses to produce, ther to fatis or to charaCter, and. the Jury without hesitation foitnd him guilty. He was then sen tenced to be transported for seven year. Married, on the 24th inst. at Petersfield, Hants, Captain ROBERT PEARCE, to Miss SARAH SEWARD, of. Street Cottage, near Petersfield, a very amiable and accomplished young Lady.
